Long term road repairs from Auckland storms Long term road repairs from Auckland storms
In January and February 2023, storm flooding and Cyclone Gabrielle caused considerable damage to roads, footpaths and cycleways, with over 1300 slips reported across Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland.
We’re still working hard to repair the damage which has been extensive in West Coast Beach communities and those living in the Waitākere Ranges area.
You’ll find information and progress updates on road repairs in your community here. These are long-term repairs which means it will take more than six months to fix.
We ask for your patience as there are many sites across the region that have significant damage. Locations that have the highest risk, and safety needs, or are the only access to a community, are prioritised for attention.
In some locations, we’ve been able to provide a temporary fix, such as one-lane access to enable access for residents or the wider community, until we can permanently rebuild the road.
We understand road damage is causing inconvenience to residents, due to detours and road closures and want to reassure the community, that we’ve deployed as many resources as possible (including additional contractors) to work on these sites but there are roads that will take significant time to fully repair.
If there are road issues with a potential safety risk (for example new slips, cracks in roads, flooding, or trees falling over roads/cycleways), call us on 09 355 3553 or report the problem online.
